The triangles are given to be congruent by the side-side-side (SSS) congruence property.

Hence, the congruent statement is:


\triangle DEF\cong\triangle HIJ

It is required to complete the given statement.

Recall that CPCTC means Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent.

The corresponding part to E is I. Hence, by CPCTC, the angle congruent to ∠E is ∠I.

The answer is option b.
